James Houston, Photographer, Sydney

Description

This monochrome image captured by photographer James Houston features a man standing on an empty roadway under an overcast sky. He wears a plain v-neck t-shirt with rolled sleeves and is holding a dark jacket displaying the text ASH. The shot utilizes natural light and a horizontal composition with a shallow depth of field, focusing sharply on the subject while the background road and distant structure softly blur. The high-contrast black-and-white grading emphasizes texture and form throughout the scene.
